I'm pretty sure it has to due with Halo 4 coming out 7 days prior, many kids (Yes, that is a fact ) most likely would have a hard time getting there parents to shell out 120+ dollars in 1 week on games. I expect BO2 to outsell MW3 lifetimes sales, most likely selling truckloads on black friday and Christmas/Boxing day

What do you guys think of this, I would think most people here can agree that Black Ops 2 is a much better game then recent CODs, and yet it isn't able to maintain sales yet beats MW3 day 1 sales. interesting. Also Video Game sales in general are down 28%, suprising considering some of the games we got this year. Thoughts?
[QUOTE="Maneil99"][QUOTE="TheDidact"]Ah, Thanksgiving. Why spend time with family and friends when you could justify your purchase of a console on System Wars. :lol: Oh and Kuraimen, you still haven't replied to my comment from around 9 hours ago. You bash Halo 4 for having Loadouts, Perks, sprint, and Killstreaks (Ordinance) like CoD, yet you praise Uncharted 3, even though it did the exact same thing over a year ago (sprint, classes, perks, kickbacks). Is Uncharted 3 also a CoD ripoff then? Did you even play it?TheDidact
Difference is one is a FPS one is a TPS. Uncharted has always had perks, halo never did, they screwed up halo 4, hence why its online population is the lowest ever for a Halo less then a month after launch, whereas Halo 3 had 300,000 and Halo Reach has 200.000 Halo 4 is under 100.000 even with the boosted install base. Guild Wars 2 gets more then that.
Reach couldn't even beat MW2 when it came out yet Halo 4 was able to surpass MW3. That may be attributed to many CoD games out but now there are more Halo games as well. Reach was still #9 most played on XBL and 3 was #19. Notice how Halo 4 is in constant competition with BO2 only a week after its release, when 3 and Reach had two months until the next CoD. People just have more to choose from now. People are choosing other games besides halo because they are better, if that was the case BO2 should have less players then MW3. If halo 3 had more players in 2007- 2009 then why does BO2 have more players then Cod 4 or any other cod ever had?[QUOTE="Da_Koolio_Gamer"]For best auto-aim assist?

[QUOTE="moistsandwich"]GS's reviews have been a joke for awhile now. It's just best to let it go and refer to metacritic or something. Best to refer to IGN's review since they sounded they knew what they were talking about and their complaints were valid and reasonable.Playstation All Stars Battle Royale - 6.5... hmmm.... okay, whatever... maybe it is, maybe it isn't.
However....
"The Bad

WHAT!?! Is this a joke?

Who reads gamespot reviews? Aside from the metagame they are a joke, games liek NS2 get **** scores based on false claims and if it weren't for public outcry it would stay the same. Not to mention infamous 2's absolute joke of a review, where the reviewer didn't know how to refill health by absorbing electricity
Black Op 2. COD4 maybe the best for its time, or best for PC due to Dedicated Servers and Mods but Black ops 2 trumps it in any other possible way.
"Playing Assassin's Creed III on Wii U's Game Pad is a tad disappointing -- it looks a bit low-res compared to other console ports." - IGN
Are they refering to the screen on the Wii U gamepad or the games graphics itself
